A Police emergency call centre operator takes a call from a young woman who has been abducted. 'The Call' triggers memories of an earlier call which ended in tragedy.
'The Call' contains much interesting footage and details about the Los Angeles Police Emergency Call Centre and its high tech operations which I assume reflect the real thing. These scenes made me wonder how Australia's 000 service stacks up in comparison.
The rest of the film is a fairly routine thriller handled competently but without much surprise. I should warn, however, that the film contains several horrific moments of violence from which I had to avert my eyes. They are brief thankfully but not very palatable.
★★★
